Bug: Audition 2021 stops scanning at particular VST(3) plugin - 2020 did not
I have recently purchased the VST/VST3 plugin Spiff from oeksound for transient fun.
Audition 2020 scanned the effects (I have rescan existing disabled) with no problem, and the effect operates as expected.
Audition 2021 seems to "stop" when it comes to spiff_64 and "never" finishes - I've only let it try for about 15 minutes, but it just sat there, never making progress. I did this twice - the second time it did the scan in a different order, saving spiff for last. However, when it got to spiff at the 97% mark, it just stopped again.
Note, ALL of Audition 2021 did not freeze! I could actually cancel out of the dialog and continue to use the application. However spiff was not added to the plugin list, so I can't use it in the 2021 version.
I am on Windows 10 x64 (kept up to date) and this problem is appearing in Audition 14.0.0.36.

Hi Matt,
Thanks for checking into this. I went to create a screenshot of the situation, but this time the scanning went through, with no apparent hangs, and the plugin is available in both Audition 2021 as well as 2020.
The only thing I did inbetween was a reboot - so I guess there must have been a blocker somewhere that didn't survive the new start.
Still, thanks again for looking into the issue!

Hi, I just tried this and was unable to replicate. Can you provide some more info? Can you post a screen shot of the Audio Plug-in Manager for me?
